We had a great experience in general
The food was excellent ,delicious, well prepared, full of authentic Persian flavours and in sizeable portions . The service was outstanding, with the staff being very welcoming, attentive, and professional throughout our visit.
The restaurant itself has a classy and elegant atmosphere, making it a great choice for a nice dinner or special occasion.
It should be considered that the pricing is noticeably higher than most Persian restaurants in Toronto, although the quality of the food, outstanding service and classy atmosphere help justify the premium. the quality of the food, excellent service, and overall dining experience were certainly impressive.

Such a lovely experience at Darbar! The food was absolutely delicious, with great flavours and generous portions. Everything we ordered was fresh and beautifully prepared.
What really made our visit special was Zahra, our waitress. She was so warm, friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the entire meal. Her excellent service and genuine hospitality made us feel truly welcomed.
Fantastic food and exceptional service—especially from Zahra. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning!

The food at Darbar is generally good, although they’re definitely overpriced compared to many other good Persian restaurants in the GTA, so you would expect the service to match the price.
We were there yesterday with guests and asked for some extra Barbari with our Kashk Bademjoon. The waitress seemed very hesitant and eventually brought us 4 tiny 3x3 pieces of bread with obvious reluctance snd said we usually charge for that, which we were okay! But the attitude was not good for sure! On top of that, we were sitting on the patio and water was dripping from the roof directly into our drinks, which was obviously not a pleasant experience.
When you’re paying around $400 for 4 people, and are more than happy to pay extra for some bread, this kind of service just doesn’t make sense. Especially when you have guests with you, it really doesn’t leave a good impression.
Good food, but for the prices they charge, the overall experience and customer service should definitely be better.
There’s no doubt that the food quality is good. However, the prices are significantly higher compared to many other restaurants, so I expected a better overall experience.
What really disappointed me was the way they handled the bread. We were a party of four and, for the appetizer, we were given only four tiny pieces of Barbari bread, each about 3 × 3 cm, along with the bread and cheese. We ordered Kashk-e Bademjan and asked if we could have some more Barbari bread. They brought only two additional pieces and then told us that they charge extra for Barbari bread.
A full Barbari bread costs $5 to $7, yet after spending around $400 at the restaurant, they couldn’t provide even half a loaf of bread for four people. Charging for a couple of small extra pieces of bread after such a large bill felt extremely disappointing and unnecessarily stingy.
The food may be good, but hospitality is about more than just the food. Unfortunately, this experience left a very negative impression on us. I hope the management reconsiders this policy, because it really takes away from the overall dining experience.
اول اینکه کیفیت غذا خوبه شکی نیست درش ولی خیلی گرونه به نسبت رستوران های دیگر. و برای پیش غذا برای ۴ نفر ۴ تا تیکه نون بربری اندازه ۳ سانت در ۳ سانت آورده با نون پنیر بعد ما پیش غذا کشک بادمجون سفارش دادیم میگیم میشه نون بربری بیاری؟ رفته ۲ تا تیکه دیگه آورده میگه ما برای نون بربری شارژ میکنیم ! یک نون بربری قیمتش ۵ -7 دلاره برای ما نصف نون بربری هم در کل نیاوردید بعد ما حدود ۴۰۰ دلار خرج کردیم انقدر محتاج و درگیر ۲ تا تیکه بیشتر نون هستید؟ واقعا جای تاسف داره
